Interstate
From Sprinter-Wiki
The Airstream Interstate is a Class B RV based on the Sprinter. This vehicle has been available in the US market from 2004 until Today. In 2008 they started to build them on the one ton 3500 model instead of the original 2500 the first generation used. This was in line with the remodel of the Sprinter that was done in 2007 that added many dimensional and mechanical options to the originally designed Sprinter.
